Retreats
At Pine Eden, retreats are more than just a speaker and a venue. It’s a place for the Holy Spirit to work in the spirit of kids, family, and friends so that they can make an impactful difference in their circle of influence.
Planning a retreat is a BIG JOB, with lots of small details. And every group is different. That’s why at Pine Eden, you have choices.
- Two different lodging options: dorm-style cabins or pitch your own tent.
- Cook your own meals or let us cater for you.
- Two different meeting areas: indoor meeting space with TV monitor and electronic hookups, or our outdoor pavilion.
At Pine Eden we love to meet folks and hosting your group is our passion, whether large or small. We can accommodate up to 172 visitors at a time.
Types of Christian Retreats
Men's Retreats
When you take part in a Christian men’s retreat, it can transform your life by unlocking your potential and igniting your passion through your faith in God. You have the opportunity to decompress from the stresses of everyday life. Just by being outdoors in God’s quietness of the woods, you can find strength and encouragement in the personal and inspiring messages from others and from the Holy Spirit. A men’s retreat offers many options for renewal of spiritual healing and guidance for the rest of your life.
Women's Retreats
A women’s Christian retreat can be uplifting. It’s a chance for you to get away, relax, learn, connect, and overcome. By attending a retreat at Pine Eden, you physically remove yourself from life’s distractions (chores, projects, and deadlines) so that you can focus on your spiritual growth and connections. You have the opportunity to center yourself in God’s will through the Holy Spirit so that you may be able to move forward in your life’s calling.

Lodging
Our 4 dorm-style cabins are broken up into 10 quads that accommodate 16 people per quad for a total of 172 people with added bunk beds in some of the lower cabins. Each quad contains 16 XL twin-size beds (plus bunk beds in lower cabins), 3 showers, and 3 or 4 toilets. We are currently renovating one of the lower cabins by changing out the twin beds for bunk beds. All buildings have heating and air conditioning.
Meals
Most groups choose to cook all of their meals in our full-size commercial kitchen, headed up by a cooking team from your group. But if you would rather focus more on your retreat and leave the cooking to us, we can provide catering for all of your meals for an additional cost.
